Did you leave out Jack Durbin on purpose?
Here's the conclusion of the TPU so far
In 2009, I was fortunate enough to discover the actual address where the TPU videos were filmed, at the so called 'mansion', a very nice house, and I paid him a visit. I confirmed the location with scenes from around his house that are shown in the video when he walks outside to test the smaller TPU. I stood at the exact spot. To my surprise, a huge high voltage power line passes within meters of his house, which supplies a portion of Southern California with electricity. Based on audio spectral analysis of his videos, I further confirmed the strong Power Line Harmonics (PLH) signals, which are harmonics of the 60 hz frequency and measured them with a sensor right at the spot. All of this evidence, along with what he said about it being a radio and needing tuning to a frequency, makes it very clear in my mind that it feeds off the near fields of the electric grid ( not necessarily 60 hz). The process of conversion he talked about is akin to the heterodyne radio architecture, meaning a few frequencies are injected and they mix, producing other frequencies that are coincident with the frequency of interest. Once it's tuned, the high Q of the tank circuit amplifies the circulating induction currents to very high levels, as witnessed in the video.
Some people resist the idea of where the energy comes from, because it robs the device of some of its mystery, and if we know where the energy comes from then some tell us it's not OU, but the device doesnt care what definition anybody applies to it, it simply works delivering lots of energy in quite a compact form, and quite lightweight as well.
In my opinion, the real mystery of the TPU is how it is built to achieve the high Q tank circuit, how feedback is used, and the circuitry for keeping it tuned on frequency, so it does not drift, along with the revolving magnetic field and DC current production without diodes. The main mystery is the use of ferromagnetic wire in its construction.
Anyway, this device can keep one experimenting for a long time, and I find it extremely fascinating, so many principles involved, not to mention the orientation behavior and the gyroscopic effects due to its vibration, and of course the washboard effect.
I experienced these effects with two tuned coils where I allowed the flowing currents to build up to over 10 amps, such that the magnetic repulsion between coils became noticeable when holding the coil in my hand.
If there's a device that we should endevour to understand, this is it.
